Anyway, it fits this week's theme at Lili's Little Fairies which is 'Something New'.
My 'something new' is this little fella who just fell into my cart when I was last shopping at LOTV.
Seriously, their cart is dangerous, stamps constantly fall into it when I'm browsing. And it seems to happen every time I shop there. And of course I just can't possibly bring myself to remove them once they're in there. So I just have to buy them. Naturally! ;0)
The Flowersoft that I've used for the snow is also new. I only had green/meadow colour before, and thought I'd buy some white for snow. I quite like it. I'm not too sure about the snowflakes in the sky, but I like the bit on the ground. I may need to practice more cos it went absolutely everywhere too!!
Despite the mess I made, I really like how this card turned out. I hope the recipient does too, cos this one's been sent to a lovely friend !!
